well i just got here; but had to realize that this sodahead gives people a place to vent and to do so without us really knowing who the other persons are. blogging like this has become as faddish as anything else here in america. it's just what we do. have a good day.

And a very Merry Christmas to you as well. It's so nice to see someone actually using the phrase. I don't know why it's all right to wish people Happy Chanukah, Happy Qwaanza and Happy Yule but somehow not all right to wish people a Merry Christmas.
